    Law Thermodynamic
AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around the kinetic theory of gases and its relationship to thermodynamics, specifically referencing "The Feynman Lectures." A participant expresses curiosity about the text being discussed, confirming it is indeed Feynman's work. The conversation highlights a particular interest in Feynman's comments on the term "adiabatic" and its varied applications. There is a noted difficulty in connecting the concept of adiabatic processes in thermodynamics with those in quantum mechanics. Overall, the exchange emphasizes the complexity of understanding these scientific concepts across different fields.

No thanks , a lot ! These are very famous. Feynman's comment about how "adiabatic" is used in many contexts caught my attention. I always had difficulty associating adiabatic in thermodynamics to adiabatic in quantum mechanics.

Thread 'Thermo Hydrodynamic Effect'

Thread 'Thermo Hydrodynamic Effect'

Vídeo: The footage was filmed in real time. The rotor takes advantage of the thermal agitation of the water. The agitation is uniform, so the resultant is zero. When the aluminum cylinders containing frozen water are immersed in the water, about 30% of their surface is in contact with the water, and the rest is thermally insulated by styrofoam. This creates an imbalance in the agitation: the cold side of the water "shrinks," so that the hot side pushes the cylinders toward the cold...
